Réponse directe

An assembly can fit in its completed state yet be impossible to build in the proposed order. Review the sequence for the carbon component, hardware, cables and neighbouring parts before freezing the design. Identify captive items and access that disappears as the assembly progresses.

Break the build into identifiable states

List the major installation steps and show what is present at each one. Include inserts, nuts, spacers or connectors that become inaccessible after another component is fitted. A single exploded view may suggest an order without establishing that it works. Name the controlled component versions and the interfaces checked at each state. Do not rely on a person discovering the sequence while building the production unit.

Check the transition between states

Review the approach path, tool envelope and movement needed to reach the next state. A part that can sit in its final location might not pass through the available opening. Consider connectors already attached to cables and hardware that must be held from the opposite side. If the sequence requires temporary movement or restraint, define an approved method instead of assuming the carbon component can be flexed arbitrarily.

Reconcile the sequence with service requirements

Determine whether the sequence can be reversed for the intended service action, and what must be removed first. A permanent bonded step can make a later component non-replaceable; this should be a documented design decision. Record the confirmed sequence and any unresolved interference in the handover package. A successful build trial establishes the configuration and method tried, not every future variant.

Example: a spacer behind a bonded bracket

The final CAD assembly shows a spacer behind a bracket, but the spacer cannot be inserted after the bracket is bonded. The project reviews the order and the controlled bonding step before release. The work instruction identifies the spacer at the correct stage and the inspection confirms it is present before access is lost.

Questions posées par les acheteurs

Does a completed CAD model prove assembly feasibility?

No. The transitions and tool access between build states still need review.

Can the installer drill another hole to reach trapped hardware?

That is a design change requiring the agreed approval route, not an assumed assembly option.
